Imagine this situation: You just bought a new phone. Happy and so, stored all contacts into it, and you lost it the next day. Few hundreds of contacts gone.
Or imagine this: You calculated how much your retirement needs. Did all necessary arrangements and preparations so that you can retire. One day, after you retire, you fell ill, spent all your retirement money, you recover fully, but you are left with nothing.
These are still not the worst scenarios that can happen. Still, they are enough to make you feel like an idiot. There is nothing you can do. You can't turn back time. You can't get back to your original status for most cases. You just can't, even with money or power.
My phone almost died on me today, and the first thing I did when I reach home was to start backing up my contacts. Typing them onto a word document, name by name, alphabet by alphabet. Now, that's preparing for the worst.
Although (bad) things may not be necessary at all happening in your life, precautions still had to be made. Make sure everything had been taken care of. Imagine the worst case scenario. Make arrangements. Waste time. It's worth it. Even if your precautions never had a chance to be utilised, enjoy the satisfaction of being safe.
Crap, I feel like I am advertising for insurance companies. Whatever may be, prepare for the worst.
